How to Build a Custom Menu in Articulate Storyline | How-To Workshop

#eLearning #InstructionalDesign #ArticualteStoryline When you're designing a course in Articulate Storyline, rather than creating a linear course or using the built-in menu in the player, you can create your own custom on-screen menu for learner navigation. In these situations, you may want to track and visually display what menu items the learner has or has not viewed, as well as, control menu access depending on whether or not they've completed certain sections. Luckily, you can easily do this using variables, conditional triggers, and button states. So, in this How-To Workshop, I'll show you how to create a custom menu in Articulate Storyline, using variables, conditional triggers, and button states. 👉 Check out all of my Articulate Storyline How-To Workshops here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqq0if6rsK0pwcQxgWRxLSHp1qHi7sDuZ 👉 Check out and sign up for our future community events here: https://community.elearningacademy.io/c/events/ ---- Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:07 Custom Menu Example 07:12 Design the Menu 07:36 Create the Menu Buttons 09:33 Customize the Button States 16:19 Create the Menu Icons 17:19 Customize the Menu States 21:43 Add Triggers to the Buttons 26:26 Create the True/False Variables 31:09 Create Triggers to Adjust the Variables 34:47 Test the Triggers with a Variables Reference 37:54 Adjust Trigger Order 40:50 Change Menu Buttons & Icons States Based on Variable Values 48:00 Closing ---- Learn more about growing your eLearning career: https://elearningacademy.io/ Enroll in our eLearning academy and community: https://elearningacademy.io/academy/ Snag a copy of The eLearning Designer's Handbook: https://amzn.to/3AlFkYU ---- Follow The eLearning Designer's Academy: Twitter: https://twitter.com/eLearningAcdmy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/elearningacdmy/ ---- Follow Tim Slade: Twitter: https://twitter.com/sladetim LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sladetim
